“Reparations must be paid for the slave trade,” Akufo-Addo said to an eruption of applause.

“No amount of money will ever make up for the horrors, but it would make the point that evil was perpetrated, that millions of productive Africans were snatched from the embrace of our continent, and put to work in the Americas and the Caribbean without compensation for their labor,” he said.

He also called for the illicit flow of funds from Africa to be returned to the continent.

While the current picture on achieving the Sustainable Development Goals “is not very bright,” Akufo-Addo expressed the hope that “it is within our capacity to turn things around.”

A good start would be to make the needed changes to the structures of the United Nations, “then we can rebuild trust and reignite global solidarity,” he said.

Xinhua Headlines: Unscrupulous Cyber Spying Sheds Light on US Hegemonic Paranoia! (20.9.2023)

According to Campbell, in 1994, the NSA shared relevant information with an American competitor of the European consortium Airbus, helping it secure a 6-billion-U.S.-dollar contract with Saudi Arabia instead of Airbus.

Another case raised by Campbell suggests that U.S. company Raytheon used NSA intelligence to win a 1.4-billion-dollar contract for radar systems supply to Brazil, defeating France’s Thomson-CSF.

Meanwhile, the United States has been working to militarize cyberspace, develop offensive cyber capabilities, and create systematic cyberattack platforms.

In 2017, cyberspace was officially listed alongside the sea, land, air, and space as the “fifth domain” of the U.S. military.

Militarization of the kind will exacerbate the risk of direct military conflict and can lead to unpredictable consequences, Andrey Krutskikh, former director of the Department of International Information Security at the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, has noted.

Alexander Werth: [1942] Soviet “Guide for Partisans”! (16.9.2023)

16/09/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

Indeed, when the Trotskyite – George Orwell – was asked by the incumbent Labour Party to compile his infamous (1948) ‘list’ of well-known left-wingers he suspected of possessing ‘Communist’ sympathies – the name of ‘Alexander Werth’ featured prominently! This was because he refused to follow the decreed US requirement for all history to be ‘altered’ and ‘distorted’ so as to make the Western working-class ‘hate’ the Soviet Union! This interfering in the historical record is so remarkable that Werth’s near ‘eye-witness’ account of the ‘Battle of Stalingrad’ (which changed WWII forever) is not only completely ignored by Western authors who came after him – but seldom known to even exist!

US: Lawsuit Accuses Beverly Hills Police of Racially Pofiling Black Motorists AP: (14.9.2023)

14/09/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

Out of a total of 1,088 black motorists stopped, only two were convicted of crimes, attorney Benjamin Crump said at a news conference, adding about a third of all arrests made during the period involved blacks, who make up only 1.5 percent of the city’s population. The suit seeks 500 million U.S. dollars in damages.

The city denied the allegations, saying in a statement that “the statistics presented referencing the number of convictions is a mischaracterization of the evidence in this case.”

“In addition, the 1,088 arrests referenced include people cited and released, not just custodial arrests,” the statement said.

“The City of Beverly Hills is an international destination that always welcomes visitors from across the country and around the world,” it noted. “The role of the Beverly Hills Police Department is to enforce the law, regardless of race.”

Research: Churchill Did NOT Meet Degrelle – Exposing the Neo-Fascist Institute for Historical Review (US) & Crecy Publications (UK) – All Email Exchanges At a Glance!

05/09/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

All the emails and research to date regarding the pseudo-history produced by the so-called ‘Institute for Historical Research’ (IHR) and Crecy Publications. This seems to be a trans-atlantic doubt act designed to eulogise those Catholics who collaborated with Nazi Germany and joined their disgusting ‘SS’ Units! This exposure of their lies is important as much of this rhetoric has fed into the contemporary ‘White Supremacist’ movement which seeks to re-write the history of WWII into the image of Adolf Hitler – making him seem to be the good guy in the midst of ALL the slaughter he caused and endorsed! Do not let the likes of the IHR or Crecy take away our history – that is the People’s History – which triumphed against fascism during the early to mid-20th century! Do NOT forget the sacrifice and bravery of the Soviet Red Army!

China: Who is Covering-Up the Unit 731 War Crimes of Japan? (4.9.2023)

04/09/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

“What Japan waged during WWII was an aggressive war, and Unit 731’s deeds were the most horrifying. But Japan has never truly reflected on this, which has resulted in a vague understanding of this history and even influenced local governments,” said Kubota.

“This is the fundamental reason behind the Iida City Board of Education’s refusal to display Unit 731 panels!” he said.

A survey conducted by Japanese newspaper Asahi Shimbun revealed that only 30 percent of the 85 WWII-related museums across Japan have long-term exhibits regarding the nation’s history of aggression. None of them has exhibits dedicated to Unit 731.

“Cover it up, then forget it without realizing it… The nation’s attitude of making true history vanish is fully evident in the acts of the Iida City Board of Education,” said Kubota, expressing profound sorrow amid the Japanese government’s attempts to conceal the truth of its wartime aggression.

“We must not let the true history disappear,” said the gray-haired man, leaning on his cane.
